An investigation of ethnic cleansing incidents in Brcko, an ethnically-mixed town in northern Bosnia that fell under Serb control at the beginning of the conflict in Bosnia. Much of Brcko's non-Serbs, some 20,000, had to flee to different parts of Europe and thousands are believed to have been murdered by the Serbs. Survivors give testimonies of large-scale killings and torture that took place in a port, "Luka," police station, Hotel Posavina, Partisan Hall, and "farma." The accounts are accompanied by photographs of an act of murder and mass graves which provide evidence of the Serbian crimes. Other statements are given by Milos Vasic (journalist for Vreme magazine, Belgrade), Milorad Ekmecic (Professor of History at the University of Belgrade), Lawrence Eagleburger (former Secretary of State) accusing Vojislav Seselj of war crimes, and Vojislav Seselj (Head of the Serbian Radical Party).
